Stainless steel is a modern material with a long history of development. Since, its invention, it has combined the image of modern material with its great reputation in construction applications.
Stainless steel doesn’t corrode, rust, pitting, or wear. It’s also one of the strongest metal materials used for construction. Due to its super-fine corrosion resistance, it permits structural elements to permanently maintain the integrity of their engineering formation and can meet the requirements of structural designers, zoo enclosures, and architects.
Introduction to the Stainless Steel
You might not realize this, but steel is an alloy. You cannot pull it out of the ground. You’ve to make it using iron and a range of other elements. The huge majority of the stainless steel production is for carbon steel and that combines – you guessed it, carbon and iron.
Unfortunately, though iron is sturdy and strong, it also easily rusts, which can make it hard to use for several purposes. What makes stainless steel very special is that it provides rust-resistant features.
It is made up of iron and a minimum of 11.5 percent of chromium. It often includes other elements, such as silicon, manganese, silicon, and probably nickel and molybdenum.
What is so special about Chromium?
Chromium is the magical element that turns usual steel into stainless steel. Why it’s so special? As mentioned, iron has the unfortunate habit of rusting which makes it inconvenient to use.
Rusting easily means that steel oxidizes when it comes exposed to moisture or air. Once iron starts to rust, it can rapidly warm warn and weaken. In stainless steel, the chromium oxidizes also, but the passive film helps prevent more corrosion.
Stainless steel is not rust-proof, but it certainly rusts less speedily than standard carbon steel which makes it a highly useful Stainless Steel Fall Protecting Netting option.
Stainless Steel Fall Protecting netting properties
Stainless Steel Fall Protecting Netting is widely used because of its beneficial properties for industrial applications. Certainly, the major advantage of hand-woven stainless steel mesh is its high corrosion resistance.
Low alloy steel can resist corrosion under normal atmospheric conditions whereas high-alloy steel can resist severe circumstances like high/low temperature, acids, high pressure, and so on.
Some steel is exceptionally hard at low temperatures while other alloys maintain strength at extremely high temperatures. Most of the stainless can simply be manufactured with several weaving types in the weaving looms.
Fall Protecting Netting and Hand woven Stainless Steel mesh can withstand several weather conditions and have a high aesthetic appeal when it comes to zoo enclosure and architectural applications, like zoo fencing and wall decor.
Stainless steel is simple to maintain when it comes to its hygienic, cleanability, and characteristics, this is why stainless steel is also applied within the food and pharmaceutical industries.
Fall Protecting Netting and Stainless steel cable mesh is extremely durable and can withstand severe circumstances over a long time. This means that stainless steel cables mesh can be categorized as low maintenance material, therefore this is usually a cost-efficient option in terms of life cycle comparison about costs.
Processing techniques for Stainless steel wire mesh
Stainless steel wire rope mesh is made by connecting parallel stainless steel wires to stainless steel sleeves or ferrules.
Stainless steel rope mesh with ferrules is more aesthetically pleasing in appearance. For this purpose, stainless steel hand woven mesh is ideal for decorative purposes.
It’s always used as an infill for railings and stair railings and Steel Fall Protecting Nets. In addition to its appearance, it provides security for animals and people.
Types of the stainless steel wire mesh
At hebmetalmesh.com our products are supplied in the main series according to different wave types – woven and ferrule cable. And the product type can be sub-divided into a range of products according to the material and ferrules we used.
Hand woven stainless steel mesh
Hand woven stainless steel mesh, fall protecting netting, in particular, is normally used in zoo enclosures or bird cages, which is also called zoo mesh. The mesh has solid tensile strength and extreme flexibility, a wide span, and high transparency.
The flexible zoo mesh has un-replaceable benefits as compared with other mesh items in several aspects like security, practicability, durability and aesthetic property, etc.
Fall protecting netting feature
- Fall protecting netting is super light and has a fine softness, simple to install.
- The shape and size can be customized, no matter round square shape mesh, round shape mesh, or irregular shape netting.
- It is made of top quality stainless steel rope mesh, corrosion-resistant, very strong, and processing very high load capacity.
- Its service life can be reached tens of years, with almost no repair or maintenance required.
- Hand woven stainless steel mesh has a smooth surface, high perspective, and beautiful appearance, most well-known used as fall protecting netting and zoo mesh.
- It is super strong, has no any pollution, environmental protection and is extremely easy to clean.
Zoo Woven mesh application
Woven mesh has wonderful flexible performance, it has a huge range of applications, including – animal enclosure, fall protecting netting, mesh fencing, safety nets, aviary mesh, etc. Because of its flexibility, it can be used in almost any complex terrain and irregular space.
Hebmetalmesh.com has rich experience in producing hand woven cable mesh, zoo fencing, and fall protecting netting and we had also undertaken several installation projects for aviary mesh and zoo enclosures. This type of mesh also can be used as a protective or safe mesh according to customer requirements.
